YOU MAKE ME FEEL LIKE A NATURAL - CITIZEN?

KC Jones writes in and asks:

Short answer: no.

Long answer: Alan Keyes, who brought this action, is a political gadfly, like Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul: smart, great conservative ideas, good speakers, but totally unelectable.

Keyes jumped into the Illinois Senatorial campaign against Obama after the original Republican candidate and shoo-in Jack Ryan mysteriously had his sealed divorce papers made public, which chronicled his kinky requests of this former wife, ultrababe Jeri Ryan, who played Seven of Nine on one of the innumerable Star Trek sequel shows. (Similar dirty tricks happened to McCain and other previous Obama election opponents.) Keyes got trounced, Obama became Senator, and the rest is history.

Keyes has "standing" to file suit because he also ran for president this year, so he is more or less shooting in the dark to hose Obama. However, even if birth certificate irregularities were found, the Democrats would push through a law decreeing Obama to be a natural-born citizen. Similar questions were raised about McCain (who was born in the Panama Canal Zone) but that suit is moot.

UPDATE: Taranto agrees.

UPDATE 2: This guy is humping a leg.
